Restoration work enhancing Macquarie Marshes’ flows PLANS to stabilise and restore a rapidly-eroding riverbed in the Macquarie Marshes, aims to help improve environmental water delivery to the critical Ramsar-listed wetland. The works are part of the $2.68 million Macquarie Marshes Enhanced Watering Project, one of four national government funded Northern Basin toolkit measures being delivered in NSW. The project is being delivered by the NSW Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water (NSW DCCEEW). “The Macquarie Marshes is one of the largest and most environmentally significant wetlands in our state and is critical to the health of the northern Basin,” NSW DCCEEW Director of infrastructure Projects, Andrew Lavelle said. “It’s an important nesting site for native water birds, and home to endangered species, unique vegetation and landscapes including red gum woodlands and marsh f loodplains. “This work is fantastic news for the Marshes,” he added. The money aims to have real-world and immediate impacts, he revealed. “It’ll help deliver significant environmental benefits and mean better connectivity throughout the southern system, allowing operators to more effectively deliver water where it’s needed at crucial times.

Warren Rugby Club celebrates 70 years By HARRIET GILMORE IT was a huge day of celebrations for Warren Rugby Club last Saturday as the local club marked their 70th anniversary. The day kicked-off with an action-packed afternoon of rugby including a special “Old Boys” team taking on, and defeating, the Pumas Second Grade side, as well as Western Plains competition games for the Pumarette’s and Pumas First Grade outfits playing Walgett. The Pumas First Grade side continued their dominance of the competition this year with a solid 38-5 win over Walgett. While the Pumarettes, put up a strong showing against the Triple Crown defending Premiers, going down just 24-7. VIP guests for the day included original members of the inaugural 1954 Warren Rugby team, Bomber Moxham and Michael McKay. Bomber led the Old Boys team onto the field for their special game, with the two original members taking to the ground also in the closing minutes to secure the Old Boys win against their much-younger Second Grade opponents. Almost 450 past-and-present players, family and community supporters, packed-out the Sporting and Cultural Centre that evening to continue the celebrations. It was a jam-packed evening of celebrations, with delicious catering by Eugowra’s ‘Eat Your

Warren Rugby Club President, Tom Noonan, welcomed guests for the evening’s celebrations, touching on the history of the Club, but also focusing on what really made the Club so special — its strength and spirit. “To this day, along with 10 premierships we have won, one of our proudest achievements, despite periods of hardship through the years, is

the Warren fi rst XV has never forfeited a game,” Tom said. “That’s an amazing fact and feat, when you think about the traditional makeup of the side which has seen jackaroos, farmhands, agronomists, teachers, tradies and other seasonal workers alike, happy to put their hand up and play simply for the love of the club,” he added. This, he said is what makes the Pumas, so special. “The strength and spirit in this club is quite remarkable. “We’re all here tonight because we love the beautiful

game of rugby and the mighty Warren Pumas!” Tom enthused. Tom also took the opportunity to acknowledge the ongoing and very generous support of the community and sponsors over the past 70 years, as well as the 10 life members the Club is extremely proud to honour: Barry Beach, John Azar, Ron McCAlman (Patron), Judy Leslie, Chris Brennan, Michael McKay, Tish McAlary, Greg Whiteley, Milton Quigley, and Mal Smith.

“Blood finder” donated to Warren Medical Centre, by Rotary and co By HARRIET GILMORE INNOVATIVE new piece of body scanning technology, was recently donated to Warren RFDS Medical Centre, thanks to the generous efforts of Warren Rotary Club and the local community. The state-of-the-art infrared “Vein Finder” arrived last week, wich, as its name implies, is designed to improve patient’s experience when drawing blood. The innovative medical technology uses high-frequency light, to provide a projected image of the underlying vascular structure under the skin’s surface, helping technicians to quickly and efficiently identify veins for blood collection. This wonderful piece of technology, was made possible thanks to Warren Rotary and a host of other local business, including Western Farm Machinery, Hutchinson

and Pearce, Three Rivers Machinery, Nutrien Red Hill, Western Mowers and Pumps, Warren Lions Club, and an anonymous donor, who all contributed to the $4400 total figure for the purchase of the Vein Finder. Warren Rotary President, Tony Smith, said the idea for the purchase came from an approach by pathology technician, Vanja Turk-Woodman and Eileen Murray, both members of Warren Rotary, who proposed that their organisation coordinate fundraising activities to buy this vital piece of equipment to improve patient comfort. Mrs Turk-Woodman said, as she was new in her role, she recognised how valuable and useful the Vein Finder would be, especially for older patients, those undergoing cancer treatment, and patients with dementia. Mr Smith said that War-

Revealing God By HOPE KELLY YOU are in a long line for coffee at Ellerslie Lane. At the front of the line is a man you’ve never seen before. After he’s checked-out, the line moves quickly until it’s your turn. You order your cappuccino and present your card, but the cashier waves her hand dismissively, “No, it’s paid.” “Who paid it?” You ask. The cashier points to the tall, quiet man waiting for his own coffee. A little while later, you duck into the council offices to pay your rates. There the man is again, but this time he’s obviously worked up about something. An elderly lady is quietly standing next to him – it appears that he is advocating on her behalf. Just before another administrator brings you to the counter, you hear him exclaim, “But it can’t wait an-

ren Rotary were pleased to donate $1500 towards the purchase of the new medical device, and then approached businesses around town who were more-than-happy to help fund the purchase. The new equipment, Mrs Turk-Woodman said, has already made her job easier and enhanced the patient experience greatly. “It’s a wonderful improvement for the services of the Warren Medical Centre,” Mrs Turk-Woodman said. “I am incredibly-grateful, for the generosity of Rotary, and all of the other donors,” she added. Mr Smith also added his acknowledgments, thanking the other local business for their support, saying it took no time at all to raise the required funds, which showed just how lucky and generous the community of Warren is.

other week! She’s already been three days without water!” Without even interacting with the man, you already know some of what his character is like. He’s generous to strangers and advocates for the needy. This is one of the purposes of the Bible. The Bible is God’s chosen snapshots of how He interacts with his people and enemies. Every story, every poem, every letter paints a picture of who God is. This is why every story is important. To miss a story is to miss an aspect of who God has revealed Himself to be. As we spend time with our friends, we learn to trust them because we know who they are. We learn that they are faithful, kind and generous to us, so we lean into that. The same is true of God. The more you know of God, the more you can trust Him and bank on Him to show up in every situation. This week, open your whole Bible and learn about who God is.

Haddon Rig’s fond farewell to Stud Manager Andy, now out on his own Contributed AFTER three wonderful decades, Andy Maclean is retiring as Stud Manager at Haddon Rig, to move to Walgett and farm with his brothers. Andy fi rst arrived at Haddon Rig (HR) in 1994 as a senior jackaroo, and swiftly rose to the role of Overseer. At the age of 25, Andy assumed the position of Stud Manager upon Forbes Murdoch’s retirement in 2001, a role he has embraced for more than 20 years with his characteristic capability, work ethic, and integrity. Haddon Rig Managing Director, George Falkiner, said it was with mixed emotions that they bid farewell to Andy after his tireless 30year tenure. “Andy’s enduring contribution to the Haddon Rig business and the Merino industry, is immeasurable,” George said. “He has navigated the HR stud through extreme droughts, floods, and market volatility, integrating new technologies and innovative sheep management practices that have modernised infrastructure and streamlined operations amid manpower and margin challenges,” he added. Andy’s adoption of ASBVs (inherent genetic predictors) and industry bench-marking, has been instrumental in breeding high-quality, dual-purpose merinos and establishing the HR Poll Stud. “Beyond his professional achievements, Andy’s interpersonal skills have fostered close relationships with clients, offering guidance and warm hospitality alongside his wife, Rachel,” George said. “His patient mentorship has positively impacted numerous young people, including our daughters, who consider him family, Andy’s passion for breeding and training working kelpies further reflects his dedication and care.” Andy is returning home to the Walgett district, to work with his brothers in their mixed-farming and merino operation. “We sincerely thank Andy for his invaluable contributions to Haddon Rig and wish him every success in his future endeavours. “We will miss his wry smile and supportive presence but eagerly an-

ticipate his continued involvement with the Stud and the broader industry,” George concluded. Reflecting on his time at Haddon Rig, Andy spoke of his love for his vocation, and for his time at the Stud. “Working at Haddon Rig, has been a fantastic journey fi lled with opportunities and the chance to meet and collaborate with wonderful people,” Andy said.. I am deeply grateful to George, Sal, Liv, and the entire family for their unwavering support throughout my tenure, the friendships and experiences have been truly rewarding, and I look forward to maintaining these lifelong connections,” he added. Matt Kelly, who has been working with Andy as Assistant Manager, will assume the role of Haddon Rig Stud Manager. Matt grew-up on a large-scale commercial merino grazing property 130 kilometres southeast of Cunnamulla, Queensland. He spent two years at Haddon Rig after completing schooling in 2017, followed by two years at nearby Egelabra Merino Stud as Overseer, before completing his studies in Agricultural Business studies at Marcus Oldham in Geelong. Matt returned to HR in January this year. “Liv is now in her second year at the helm of Haddon Rig, demonstrating strong leadership and a professional approach to advancing the Stud,” Andy said. “I am confident that Liv and Matt will form a formidable team, supported by Stuart Murdoch and the HR team, to nurture lasting relationships with current and future clients and propel the Stud forward. I am excited to collaborate with them in furthering the growth and promotion of the Stud.” he added. Andy will continue to work closely with Haddon Rig as a client classer and Stud Advisor. “We wish Andy all the best in his next chapter and eagerly anticipate continuing our longstanding friendship,” George said. We look forward to seeing you at the 2024 Ram Sale, where we will celebrate Andy and his contributions to HR over the last 30 years, Andy’s last day at Haddon Rig will be on October 30,” he concluded.

New $25 million spend, to save troubled Darling River system A $25 MILLION spend to implement a multi-faceted program designed to save the troubled Darling River system, is a key environmental take-out from the recent State Budget. The money is aimed at paving the way for decisive action on water quality in NSW’s far-west. The funds will go towards the Restoring the Darling River Program to help nurse the system back to health using ground-breaking science, data, and infrastructure, NSW Water Minister, Rose Jackson, said. “The Darling-Baaka River, is the lifeblood of many communities in far-western NSW and this year’s Budget puts money on the table to lay the foundation for delivering the long-term measures that we know are needed to get it back into shape,” Ms Jackson said. “There is no ‘silver bullet’

when it comes to resetting river health, in a system that is under more pressure than ever before,” she added. The money is designed to supplement work already started on the river system, she revealed. “Although we have already taken some positive steps forward, this is an incredibly-complex issue in an age where the climate is more unpredictable. “Which is why, we are rolling-out a dedicated program of work to take our support to the next level in helping to restore and protect the Darling-Baaka for future generations,” Ms Jackson said. In a fi rst for the State, the program will deliver a suite of initiatives to build-on the significant progress made since an independent investigation that conducted by the Office of the NSW chief scientist and engineer (OCSE) in March

2023, into the mass fish deaths at Menindee. Over the past year, the NSW Government has been ramping up river monitoring and increasing resources across agencies to improve the way we manage and respond to water quality issues along the river, as part of our plan to address the OCSE recommendations in full. In addition, the Government has fast-tracked an innovative one-year trial, in partnership with other basin states, to access environmental water to improve connectivity between the northern and southern Murray Darling Basin. These actions enabled NSW to deliver a flush from the upper Menindee Lakes through the lower Darling-Baaka at the end of May which has helped clear the infestation of blue-green algae that has plagued the region for weeks, providing much needed relief

for communities that rely on the river. “The chief scientist’s report has provided a roadmap for ensuring that we do everything in our power to avoid these events in the future while boosting the overall health of the river. This funding is a leg up in achieving these goals,” Ms Jackson said. “I’m particularly excited to see us experimenting with new fishway technology while we’re working on solutions for permanent fish passage over the long-term,” Ms Jackson said. The NSW Government estimates that it will spend more than $6.5 million to trial stateof-the-art temporary fish passage technologies, $6 million to complete a detailed business case for permanent fish passage in the Lower Darling and Menindee Lakes system which could restore 518km of connectivity between the

RAIN AND FLOODS MAKE OUR HOMES A BREEDING GROUND FOR MOZZIES Flood water and pools of stagnant water from recent rain have turned many backyards into the perfect breeding ground for mosquitoes, that spread human disease, such as Murray Valley encephalitis and Ross River virus. Any still or stagnant water around the home can encourage mosquitoes to breed and increase the chance of people being bitten. Tips to minimise the chance of a mosquito breeding ground around the home or school: z Remove all water-holding receptacles from around the yard; z ,i}Õ >À Þ yÕÃ ÕÌ « Ì « > Ì L>ÃiÃÆ z Keep guttering clear; z Mow lawns regularly and clear vegetation areas of moist, tangled undergrowth;

z Make sure openings of septic tanks and water tanks are covered and screened securely. Important preventative measures include: z Ensuring all doors and windows, V Õ` } Þ ÕÀ Ìi Ì] >Ã yÞ ÃVÀii } good condition; z Protecting your skin from bites by covering up with long sleeves, pants and socks; z Use insect repellents on any exposed skin. (The best repellents contain the chemical ingredients DEET or picaridin). Most mosquitoes become active around dusk although some species are active also during the day. The key time to take special care again mosquito bites is just prior to, and for two hours after dusk.

northern and southern Murray Darling Basin and nearly $4.5 million to design and implement a Menindee-specific mass fish death event response plan to clearly explain triggers, agency and community responsibilities in the event of an incident. Also, nearly $3 million will be spent to install new real-time multi-parameter water quality monitoring buoys and data loggers and undertake a scientific study on the impacts of mass fish deaths on Weir 32 water quality, $1 million towards ongoing maintenance and operation of real-time water quality sensors and other water quality monitoring in the weir pool and around $1.7 million to set up a new governance model which will coordinate integrated management of land use, water and natural resources to improve ecological outcomes among other significant spends.

Di Wielinga, Jillian Murray and Kaye Bennett at the official opening of the refurbished library. By HARRIET GILMORE OFFICIAL opening to celebrate the recent refurbishments to Warren Shire Library — and to also bid farewell to long-serving Library Manager, Pamela Kelly — was held last Thursday. The more-than $315,000 “Doorways to an Open Air Library” refurbishment, was completed earlier this year and included improvements to the entrance, with a particular focus on accessibility and outdoor landscaping enhancements. The almost six-month renovations were funded by a State Library of NSW public infrastructure grant. Warren Shire Council also used the celebration to acknowledge and farewell Ms Kelly, long-standing Regional Manager of the North Western Library, who is retiring after 21 years. Warren Mayor, Councillor Milton Quigley; Council General Manager, Gary Woodman; Shire councillors and staff; former General Manager, Ashley Wielinga; former Mayor, Rex Wilson (OAM); and members of the general commu-

nity, all came-together for the celebratory morning tea and cake in the morning. Ms Kelly welcomed everyone to the refurbished Library and thanked those involved in bringing the project to fruition, before Cr Quigley congratulated Ms Kelly her years of service to the Library and ensuring it was a vibrant and contemporary community asset that had evolved over the years to meet the changing needs of patrons and visitors to town. Mr Woodman said it was great to see members of the community enjoying all of the improvements that had been made as part of the project. “Our appreciation goes to everyone involved in bringing this project to fruition, including builder Nathan O’Neill from Precinct Commercial; architect Belinda Dimarzio-Bryan from B Creative Architecture + Photography; engineering, and design by the late Richard Noonan from Barnson; and Ryan Mason from Ryan Mason Engineering, who provided the laser-cutting services for the Library

Mr Woodman also expressed his gratitude to Ms Kelly on behalf of Warren Shire Council. “Warren Shire Council has been extremely fortunate to have had such a capable librarian for the past 21 years, who has made the Warren Shire and North Western Library her own, Pam has made the Warren Shire Library THE place to be, whether you were just starting to read, or a longtime avid reader,” mr Woodman said. “I have long considered reading one of the five important ‘R’s’ invaluable to our community — ‘roads’, ‘rates’, ‘rubbish’, ‘river’, and ‘reading’; and Pam has been integral in ensuring our community had access to such an important service,” Mr Woodman concluded.

It’s tax time, so don’t let scammers go “phishing”

that the Norton group says the community should be on the alert for include:

By SHARON BONTHUYS WITH the 2023/24 fi nancial year now concluded, thousands of locals can now start to submit their tax returns to the AT (Australian Tax Office). This, unfortunately, also happens to be an opportunistic time for scammers, so the community should be vigilant for “phishing” scams designed to gain access to individuals’ personal accounts. Despite nine-in-10 Australians being confident they can identify a scam, more than a third fail to do so, according to research by YouGov conducted earlier this year. When multiple tax phishing scams were tested with Australians over the age of 18, only 69 per cent could successfully identify all of them. The research also showed around one in four Australians have been exposed to a tax-related scam. The Commonwealth Bank of Australia (CBA) says tax season brings heightened risk as millions of people wait for a tax return over the next few months. Scammers will be keen to capitalise on the moment, the Commonwealth Banks General Manager of Group Fraud, James Roberts, said. “While it’s encouraging to see a majority of Aussies were confidently able to spot scams when tested, concerningly almost a third didn’t correctly spot all of them,” Mr Roberts said. “As a nation, we’ve made good inroads into reducing the impact of scams, but we all need to stay vigilant and across the latest scam trends,” he added. The community should remain particularly vigilant for “phishing” scams arriving by text message to mobile phones (SMS), and via email, the CBA urges. SMS phishing scammers impersonate myGov and the Australian Tax Office (ATO) to “phish” for personal information, including bank card details. The link within the SMS will take the recipient to a fake website, which might look very real.

Tax-related identity theft

THIS scam occurs when cybercriminals access a victim’s account, impersonate them, and fraudulently lodge refunds from the ATO using stolen personal information, including tax fi le number (TFN). This may leave you vulnerable to other identity-related crimes. To stay safe, keep your TFN safe, shred personal documents before you throw them away, and ensure that your online accounts containing sensitive information, like myGov, are protected with strong passwords and two-factor authentication.

ATO impersonation scams

Have you received a dodgy SMS like this one? Do not click on the link, it is likely a scam!

There will be a place to enter their card details and then this unfortunately allows access to their money. “Everyone should keep an eye out for text messages and emails impersonating myGov and the ATO. They may appear in a thread of legitimate messages from these organisations,” Mr Roberts said. “The major red flag for this type of scam is the link, which differs considerably from the official myGov and ATO website addresses. If you’re unsure, contact the organisation on a verified phone number or via their official website or app, otherwise delete the text,” he added. Leading cybersecurity soft-

Do not click on links in emails suggesting you need to log into your myGov account. It may actually take you somewhere that looks legitimate, but isn’t. PHOTOS: CBA.

ware provider Norton, which is part of the GEN group, has released new consumer data suggesting 14 per cent of Australians say they have personally experienced cybercrime in the past 12 months, with the average amount lost to cybercrime over $850. Of those who have experienced cybercrime in the last 12 months, 35 per cent had detected unauthorised access to an online banking or fi nancial account, APAC Managing Director for Norton, Mark Gorrie, said. “There are certain times each year that pique cybercriminals’ interest and tax time continues to be one of

them,” Mr Gorrie, said. “With the amount of personal and fi nancial information that is being stored and shared at this time, coupled with the stress that comes with fi ling tax returns, it is the perfect storm for scammers to target Australians,”he added. Mr Gorrie said it was important to understand that cybersafety practices should never be sacrificed in exchange for convenience. “AI is aiding cybercriminals in evolving and developing their devious tactics. It is more important than ever that Australians are continuing to educate themselves on the warning signs.” Three tax-related scams

Community input over new name for Tracker Riley Shared Pathway DUBBO Regional Council is calling on its community to suggest names for the updated section of the Tracker Riley Shared Pathway along the Macquarie River. Councillors called for a community engagement process to be undertaken to develop options for the formal naming of the infrastructure that was delivered as the legacy shared pathway, noting the project name reflected the grant funding program. The pathway forms part of the Tracker Riley Shared Pathway along the Macquarie River and boasts an all-access pavement which includes four viewing platforms overlooking the river.

“This shared pathway adds to the enjoyment of the precinct for both residents and visitors alike,” Dubbo Mayor, Councillor Mathew Dickerson said. “We are encouraging the community to let us know what they would like to name this area; a suitable name is out there, and we are looking forward to hearing the ideas from our community,” he added. The submissions must follow guidelines outlined by the Geographical Naming Board (GNB) which include names being easy to pronounce, spell, and write, and should not exceed three words or 25 characters in total. An exception to this is the use of

an Aboriginal name, when it is accepted that a traditional name may at fi rst appear to be complex but will over-time become more familiar and accepted by the community. Once nominations close, community members will have the opportunity to vote for their preferred name from an approved shortlist. A report will go back to Council with the recommendations for a new name to be endorsed. Once a name is chosen it will be taken through to the GNB to be officially named. Members of the community are invited to submit proposed names to DRC via its ‘Your Say’ page until Monday, July 8.

THIS scam sees cybercriminals pose as ATO representatives to convince victims to provide their bank details, TFN, or other personal information via SMS, email, or social media accounts. While the ATO does have legitimate profi les on social media, look out for scammers posing on social media as ATO staff offering to help individuals solve issues. If you receive a suspected scam email or SMS, do not click on any links, provide any payments, account log-in information, or other personal information, and report it to the ATO directly.

Dodgy tax return preparation scams

SCAMMERS may promise substantial and speedy tax returns, and will ask for access to victims’ myGov accounts. From here they lodge tax returns through the ATO’s myTax web portal or take personal details and payment before disappearing. You can check that tax agents are registered by checking the Federal Government’s Tax Practitioners Board (TPB) website.

Political News & Opinion COULTON’S ULTON’S CATCH TCH UP Comment ment by K COULTON, MARK ral Member Federal arkes for Parkes

Funding to support our Indigenous artists I’D like to congratulate the arts organisations within the Parkes electorate, that have received funding through the Federal Government’s Indigenous Visual Arts Industry Support Program. Arts Out West Incorporated has received $103,000, to provide visual arts services to Indigenous artists in the Central West, including Lachlan Shire. Arts North West Incorporated, has received $102,000 to deliver assistance to Indigenous artists in the New England and North West — including Gunnedah, Gwydir, Moree and Narrabri shires — to participate in marketing and professional development opportunities. Outback Arts Incorporated, has received $80,000 to provide visual arts services to Indigenous artists and engage Indigenous arts workers based in far western NSW — including Bourke, Brewarrina, Bogan,

Coonamble, Walgett and Warren shires — through the Living Arts and Culture Program. NSW Aboriginal Culture Heritage and Arts Association Incorporated has received $135,000 to deliver business development, professional development and advocacy to its visual arts hub membership network — including Bourke Aboriginal Art Gallery, Brewarrina Aboriginal Cultural Museum, Dharriwaa Elders Group (Walgett) and the Wiradjuri Study Centre (Condobolin) — and Indigenous visual artists across NSW, as well as engage an Indigenous arts worker. The Parkes electorate is home to some incredible Indigenous artists and I’m pleased that they’ll benefit from this funding.

Opposition to live sheep export ban LAST week in Parliament, I had the opportunity to speak in opposition to Labor’s live sheep export ban which, unfortunately, passed the House of Representatives. Not only will this ban have devastating consequences for the entire sheep industry in Australia, but it will decimate rural communities and impact our overseas customers, just so those in the leafy suburbs can feel good about saving the animals when they have absolutely no idea about the industry.

Federal Member for Parkes, Mark Coulton, Mark Coulton, spoke in opposition to Labor’s live sheep export ban in Parliament last week. As someone who has spent most of my life working in the livestock industry, I can tell you, that there’s no-one who cares more about the welfare of animals, than farmers. Australia has one of the highest standards when it comes to animal welfare and, if this bill goes through, it will only shift supply to other countries that do not have these same standards.

My First Speech competition SENIOR students from the Parkes electorate have an exciting opportunity to shine a national spotlight on the issues that matter most to them, by taking part in the ‘My First Speech’ Competition. This national competition challenges students in Years 10, 11, and 12, to envision themselves as newly-elected Members of the House of Representatives and record a 90-second speech on video, focusing on a topic of their choosing.

The winning entrant from each year group, accompanied by a parent or guardian, will be flown to Canberra to deliver their speeches live at Parliament House, and participate in an engaging program tailored to deepen their understanding of the legislative process. This competition is a wonderful way for our next generation of community leaders to have a say in our national Parliament, and I encourage all enthusiastic students in the Parkes electorate to give it a go.

From page 1 He also acknowledged the committee, in particular Jack Kelly, Britt Leddon, and Emma Ferguson, for making the night possible. “From 1954, in winter time, rugby in Warren has been a constant, a staple and an integral part of the fabric that makes-up this amazing community. “The thing that we can rely on to get us out of the house or off the farm and think about something else for a few hours on a Saturday afternoon whilst chewing on a steak sandwich and slurping a lukewarm can of Northern!” Tom said. This he, added, is what bush footy is all about. “A run around, a kick of the footy and establishing friendships with folks, that as the majority of the room tonight will attest to, will eventually become lifelong mates,” Tom said. “It’s a club that I’m honoured to be a part of!,” he concluded. Former player, coach and lifetime member of the club, Mal Smith, also spoke during the evening, talking about what he called the “golden decade” of rugby in Warren, and announcing the Pumas team of the decade. Mal said in the past 10 years, Warren’s first grade team has made it to every finals of the Western Plains Rugby competition. In seven of those years, the Pumas have made it all the way to the grand fi nals (out of a possible nine due to COVID), winning two premierships in 2018 and 2023. Mal’s team of the decade featured Tom Noonan, Sam Noonan, Jack Kelly (NSW Country representative), John Ashleigh, Ben Egan (NSW Country representative), Andrew Cosgrove, Keith Andrews, Will Archer (Captain), Matt Kelly, Tom Azar (NSW Country representative), Dave Jenkins, Richie Steele ((NSW Country representative),

Another highlight of the evening included a live auction of all the commemorative 70th anniversary playing jerseys worn by First Grade, in the original all black-and-white collar colours. The auction, run by Nutrien’s Marcus Bruce and Ray White Richardson Sinclar’s Justin Sanderson, raised more than $30,000 for the Club and their junior pathways, including toppriced number 10 jersey which went for $2500.

Community-led innovation, aims to revolutionise bush healthcare access AN innovative new project in far north Queensland that if successful could revolutionise healthcare delivery throughout rural Australia is part of a $16 million injection for healthcare strategies aimed at improving care for isolated Australians. The National Rural Health Alliance (the Alliance) was delighted the Minister for Health and Aged Care, Mark Butler, when he announced funding for 11 innovative healthcare projects in rural and remote Australia. One of the trial projects is the Alliance’s proposed Pri-

ONE local school was forced to shut last week and NSW Health is urging the community to protect themselves against serious illness, as cases of respiratory illnesses and emergency presentations continue to rise across the community, and the State. St Mary’s Parish School was forced to cancel classes last Friday, June 28, as a result of illness across the school community. In a letter to families on Thursday afternoon, Assistant Principal, Amy McCalman said that, after consultation with the Wilcannia-Forbes Catholic Education office, the decision had been made to cancel classes. “We are currently experiencing significant illness in our school community, and it will not be possible to staff our school fully,” the letter said. “We ask, where possible, to keep your children at home and monitor them for f lu-like symptoms,” it added. Early learning centres and schools across the community have also experienced increased illness activity recently. Royal Flying Doctor Service South East (RFDSSE) Executive General Manager, Health Services Development, Jenny Beach, said there has been increased presentations to the Warren RFDS Medical Centre. “We have seen a rise in the number of cases of COVID, Influenza A and B and RSV, as well as an

mary care Rural Integrated Multidisciplinary Health Service (PRIM-HS) model set to be trialled at Mareeba in farnorth Queensland. The PRIM-HS model will provide an opportunity to revolutionise healthcare delivery in rural Australia through a model fi rst proposed by the Alliance and developed with communities, the Alliance has stated. Implemented in conjunction with Mareeba’s community of 12,000 people, including the Mareeba Community’s Family Healthcare (MCFHC), PRIM-HS will be trialled at MCFHC under a $1.57 million grant. The Mareeba community adds to Australia’s economy by producing mangoes, sugar cane, avocados, bananas, ly-

People who have respiratory symptoms, can make an appointment with one of our GPs, Ms Beach added, who will conduct an assessment and may choose to do pathology testing to confirm illness and determine the best method of treatment. In the instance of a positive result, Ms Beach said medication can be prescribed for whooping cough but, for some other illnesses, the main key to recovery is rest. She also recommends people stay away from school, work, or childcare, while infectious to help reduce the spread. “For the health of staff and patients who present to the clinic, we ask that you notify us when making an appointment, or before attending, if you have cold or flu symptoms, so we can advise the best course of action for your appointment,” Ms Beach requested. “We also ask that anyone who comes into the clinic with symptoms, wear a mask and practice good hand hygiene.” The latest respiratory data from NSW Health, found activity levels were high across the State for COVID-19, influenza, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), whooping cough (pertussis) and pneumonia, with an almost 20 per cent increase in test positivity for influenza.

The trial is a community-led approach, she explained. “They maintain that they

For the week ending June 22, the Western Area Health District recorded 182 cases of COVID, 313 cases of influenza and 124 cases of RSV. For the month of June, there were almost 100 cases of whooping cough in the district. NSW Health’s Executive Director of Health Protection, Dr Jeremy McAnulty, described the high-level of flu in the community as “concerning”. “Influenza is more serious than the common cold. It can cause pneumonia, make chronic underlying medical conditions like diabetes, lung and heart disease much worse, requiring hospital admission and causing death,” Dr McAnulty said. “Complications can occur in anyone but are most likely in those at higher risk of severe illness,” he added. NSW Health, and the RFDS recommend vaccination as the best protection against infection and serious complications. “Everyone, but particularly those at higher risk of severe disease, is urged to get their inf luenza vaccination now; it’s not too late to get vaccinated. “By getting vaccinated, you also help protect those around you,” Dr McAnulty argued. The Warren RFDS clinic has been providing influenza vaccinations through winter and can still provide those vaccinations by appointment, Ms Beach concluded.

can come-up with local solutions, by working with health clinicians, local government, industry, community and health stakeholders. “This is a fantastic opportunity for the Mareeba community to sustainably address unique local population health challenges, including workforce and lack of healthcare access and prioritise together, what they could deliver with collaboration.” The PRIM-HS model, which is a community-led and co-designed model, has been a longterm call of the Alliance for community-based, not-forprofit organisations to deliver multidisciplinary primary health care services that meet the specific health and wellbeing needs of communities. “As we progress the trial,

we will be eager to share what is learnt and see the model being adapted in other communities across rural, regional and remote Australia to address the ongoing rural healthcare access and health outcomes challenges,” Ms Tegen said. The National Rural Health Alliance (the Alliance) comprises 53 national organisations committed to improving the health and wellbeing of the over seven million people in rural and remote Australia. It’s diverse membership includes representation from the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health sector, health professional organisations, health service providers, health educators and students.

Sport CHRISTIE AND HOOD CASTLEREAGH LEAGUE ROUND NINE

Race to the semi-finals, is now on in earnest!

Ahrens Gilgandra Pink Panthers (10) v Cobar Roosterettes (22). By BRYSON LUFF WITH five rounds remaining in the Christie and Hood Castlereagh League competition, the first-grade topfive is starting to take shape, with both Coonabarabran and Gulgong, who sit equal fourth on the ladder, enjoying a five-point buffer over sixth-placed Gilgandra. Whilst it is still possible for the Gilgandra Panthers to make the semis, their task became all that more difficult when they went down to the Cobar Roosters 22-14 in front of a big crowd at Gilgandra on Saturday. Having tested the undefeated Coolah ‘Roos the previous week, the Panthers once again showed that they are a capable side, when they made the second-placed Roosters work hard for their win. But they let themselves down at crucial times in another game that slipped through their grasp, quite literally at times, with their poor handling relieving the pressure on the Cobar defence on a number of occasions. That is not to say that the Roosters did not deserve to win, which they set-up in the fi rst-half when they went to the sheds at half-time as 16-4 leaders, and then extended that lead to 22-4 just five minutes into the second-half. From that point on, all the

scoring belonged to Gilgandra, who started to make inroads when they spread the ball wide. It was only some desperate defence, combined with the Panther’s sloppy handling, that saw the ‘Roos claim the win, which consolidates their second place on the competition ladder. Whilst they will still be in second position irrespective of the result of their clash with the third-placed Narromine Jets at Narromine this Saturday, they can expect that the home side will be going allout to close the gap between the two sides on the competition ladder, and a great game is expected. A loss by the Jets has the potential to see them relegated to fi fth place on the ladder however, should both Coonabarabran and Gulgong win their games against Coonamble and Baradine respectively. So, it is an important game in more ways than one, for the red-and-whites! On the League Tag scene, the Coolah Flyers moved to equal-second place on the ladder when they downed the well-performing Dunedoo Swannettes 24-8 at Coolah on Friday night, signalling that they are well-and-truly in the mix for Premiership honours. The Binnaway Bombshells League Tag ladies also scored a win, with their 28-0 victory over Coonabarabran at The

Ahrens Gilgandra (22) v Cobar Roosters (14). PHOTOS: STEPHEN BASHAM. Crater last Saturday; just one of three victories for the Bombies.

Pumas continue their winning run, defeating Walgett during 70th year celebrations

By HARRY GAYNOR Victoria Oval was overwhelmed with celebrations for the game of rugby as the Warren Rugby Club celebrated its 70th Anniversary on Saturday. The Pumas and Pumarettes on the field took-on the Walgett Rams for their annual Old Boys Day, with a special game of Second Grade versus Warren “Old Boys” as well, to provide a vast platter of rugby entertainment before the celebratory ball later that evening. The Pumarettes kicked-off proceedings with an early game against the Triple-Crown defending Premiers, the Walgett Ewes. Keen to turn things around after two straight losses, Warren numbers were formidable, with a record 19 players available for the match. Although the first two sets were a reflection of the Pumarette’s match attitude to gain quick momentum, some disjointed defence, unfortunately let an easy Walgett try in after just five minutes. An almost identical series of plays preceded this, with the Walgett captain completing a beautiful set-piece play off a scrum to slide through a flat-footed Warren defence for second points. The Pumarette’s leader Alison Ruskin-Rowe wasn’t going to let the lead drift away early, and so lifted the intensity of the ruck speed, to get Warren down

into some attacking territory. Movement through the hands, then found some space out wide for Lily Bruce and Grace Bestmann, yet the Walgett defence was just too well-drilled, and the points were hard to achieve. Eventually the pressure led to some desperate passing and the Walgett girls pounced on some loose-ball to run away for their third try. The Ewes were out in front 19-0 at half-time, yet some super subs from Warren, allowed them to get back into the game in the second half. Pumarette dynamo, Pip Storer unfortunately, had to be carried off with a busted ankle at half-time in her final appearance for the year. To hit back, Kaitlin Staniforth helped drive the ball across both sides of the field early in the sets to stretch out the Ewes’ defence. Grace Bestmann and debutant Trini McKay were integral with some side-stepping around a tiring Walgett defence. They pressured and pressured the Walgett line with successive kicks yet the Ewes’ just kept scraping by to keep it out. Eventually, the ball just had to land in the hands of returning speed-demon Sarah Noonan, who sidestepped about five players and ran 70 metres to score the first and only try for the Pumarettes in spectacular fashion. Unfortunately, this would be the only try scored for Warren, as the Ewes ran away victorious

again 24-7. Warren took some positives away from the game, as they prepare for the trip to Brewarrina next week. Up next, the Warren Pumas Second Grade side were lucky enough to go up against the specially-formed Warren Old Boys team, an eclectic selection of past Pumas legends who donned the boots, and a generous smattering of Dencorub. It was clear that the young second XV thought the challenge was going to be lacking in substance, yet the Old Boys got to work early in gaining field position. JJ Noonan commanded a quick succession of forward charges at halfback position, with the elderly Piggies gaining easy territory with a no-frills running attack. Tim Whiteley and Jack Brennan couldn’t get enough of it, screaming out for each hit up as though it could well be their last. The field position allowed the Old Boys to send it wide to Tim Jenkins, who steamed over the sideline for first points. The same passage of play prevailed after this, with Tim Jenkins going over for a double, the second XV left surprised by the early surge. Despite the rapidly climbing midday heat, and also the waning longevity of fitness, the Old Boys held out against the surge of attack from the young guns in return. Some old school footy prevailed, with simple pick and

drives directing the passage of play from both sides. The second XV, finally hit back with a try after finding their swift wingers out wide, yet the Old Boys had the last laugh, as the Warren “Loosehead Prop of the Decade”, and Club President, Tom Noonan, somehow danced his way along the touchline to score points under the post. The fi nal two minutes of the game saw a legend of Western Plain’s Rugby Union, Tom “Bomber” Moxham, run onto the field for a special cameo, scoring the fi nal points as the Old Boys ran the clock down as winners. Following this, the First XV were welcomed onto the field, sporting the special edition of the 70th Anniversary cotton jerseys which would be auctioned off later that night. With Walgett sitting second on the ladder, the game was anticipated to be another display of high-quality bush rugby. With a raft of players returning from injury though, the confidence of Warren was evident from the whistle, forcing early mistakes from the Walgett backline and driving themselves into excellent field position to allow Stuart McLean to cross over for first blood. The ever-reliable conversion boot of Hagan Size, was soon required to convert his own try 10 minutes later. Five-eighth Charlie Howard started to put together a

well-rounded attacking display, firing a charge of cutout passes and in-field kicks to keep the Pumas within attacking territory the whole first half. Walgett were able to regain some momentum throughout some occasions, but the fitness of the young Warren side proved vital as they eventually denied any lengthy momentum with a series of turnovers at the ruck. With the lead at 26-0 at halftime, the Pumas were keen to keep the foot down. A couple of inspiring crashballs from Joe “Mad-Dog” Hamblin were followed up by him scoring a great try not long after the break. Walgett though, were soon able to finally get some points on the board, with skipper Charlie Friend revealing his professional skills to put his outside backs into useful space and momentarily encouraging his side to mount a comeback. Yet the fresh subs, fitness and confidence of the Pumas side would prove to be too much, as a 60th minute try to captain Jack Kelly drove the dagger in, and Warren soon prevaied 38-5. Warren were able to extend their undefeated lead atop the competition ladder, and next week both sides will travel to Brewarrina to take on the Bre/Bourke Barbarians in Round Nine.
